We're so proud of you girl, keep going.

Never heard “recommendations” pronounced like that

Hi Bella! Some people at my school were being pretty mean to me today and your video cheered me up a bit (like they always do) Tysm ❤

I only read one book this month, but I'm okay with it because I finished it! I'm halfway through malazan book of the fallen and loving it. I totally get what you mean about a book slump trying to gaslight you. I have a list of go-to rereads for when that happens that I know will get me out. I've also had a goal this year of not focusing so much on how many books or how many pages I read a month, but how much I'm enjoying what I'm reading. If I enjoyed 15 books that month, cool, and if I only read one but it was a 5 or 6 star favorite, then that's cool too. I hope you find a book that gives you that excited feeling about reading again <3

Woooh good on you both for the plaque and the progress on the metamorphoses!

I have been in a reading slump ever since 2024 started actually it's kinda crazy.

One of my solid tried and true ways to get out of a reading slump is to reread an old favorite.

Hi Bella! Hope you're doing good, although it's so hot outside 🥹🥹 I'm currently in my end-of-high-school exams and I just finished with the first one today and honestly I'm exhausted because I didn't sleep well last night (I never sleep well during exam weeks) so I'm praying the next 2 exams will be okay as well 🥹🥹 I wish you have a good time these days and congratulations for your youtube button! You're amazing, please keep it up 🥰🥰

❤ you could re-read a book you loved to get out of a slump thats what I do it works good for me ❤

great vlog x always is with u bella 😂

bellaaa, loved the video! 💖 I just finished my finals and for the first time in forever i managed to finish a book!! yass we love small wins 🫶

you’re so precious making the book packages 🥹 makes giving away books a truly fulfilling and sweet process 🫶 AHHHH THE PLAQUEEEEE I’m so proud of you forever and ever 💗

Happy Place was so disappointing to me. I gave it 2 stars and automatically unhauled lol

You hate relating to men? Modern day feminism jeez misandrist much?

this vlog made me so happy 💜🥹 so, so happy congratulations on 100K again, bella. that award looks stunning up there 🫶 also, i love seeing how much love and care you put into the packages you send out. it genuinely makes me happy to see how much thought you put into such things and to care for your army of premium simpers 🥺 GAHHHHH i am getting emotional writing this but i just really wanted to thank you for what you do and for being yourself. i am so happy i am also a small part of this found family, even if it is through discord sending you so much love, bella 🥰

I’ve been reading the books of George R.R. Martin and I love it! I started with Fire & blood, and I am currently reading A Clash of Kings. They’re so amazing and remind me of how amazing reading is so soul highly recommend it to you!❤ love the video💐

Congratulations Bella! You have inspired me in so many ways and I am happy to see you getting your literal flowers B!

oh and i also am in a reading slump... i have final exams but i really wish when im done i can get back to reading, i miss my books

hi Bella, loved ur video as always! just wanted to tell u that i finished watching Welcome to Samdalri! thank you so much for the rec, i really enjoyed watching it! my favorites were obviously the dolphin family, wish the ending wasn't so rushed and they didn't part for 2 years tho... still it was pretty awesome! id love more recs from you as i obvi trust your taste!

I definitely agree with the tip to reread some favorites to get you out of a slump! Sometimes it “backfires” and you end up in brain rot mode with no escape from your fave, but that’s better than not enjoying reading at all 🙃

Congrats on your milestone on this channel! I'd love to see a video where you speak in Spanish all the time (perhaps with English subtitles)! I'm from Argentina so obviously my accent is very different from yours but I do love when you say some phrases in Spanish here and there ❤

sadly india is too far away to get any books or bookmarks sent to... but i love your videos 😁

if you like Maurice, you should try Brideshead Revisited!

Omg congratulations girlie 🎉☺❤ my favorite person on the internet!!!!

Girl I haven’t finished a book in three months… this reading slump is not fun

Congrats on the 100k. 🎉Always love seeing your videos. Hope you get over your reading slump soon. I’ve kinda been in one too & have started like 4 different books to try & get past it.

Just wanna say, I'm not sure you're supposed to be rooting for Dorian 😅

To get out of a reading slump definitely try reading Frieda McFadden books, her books are fast paced and the writing flows easily, they are to binge in 24 hours! And Inside out 2 was AMAZING!! Loved it so much, can’t wait now for adult Riley in Inside out 3 haha Also watched ep 12 (final episode) of Kaiju No.8 and OMG these 12 episodes were a wild ride!! Need to jump to the manga now! Random question: have you ever watched My hero academia or read the manga?

Jesus loves you he died for you. I recommend reading the Bible❤

The books that really really got me back strong into reading this year were Evil Eye by Etaf Rum and Demon Copperhead by Barbara Kingsolver - (although, To The Lighthouse by Virginia Woolf seems to be taking me backkk 😪)

One book that sort of drew me back in is Assistant To The Villain in case you haven't read it! But also The Seven Husbands Of Evelyn Hugo also since its one of my favorite books!

New video yess!! It’s 1:50 AM and I have a final exam in a few hours so I will be watching this when I come back haha

🤍🩷📖

Bella: Im having a really hard day right now please dont make me do math Me: relatable, but also i hope you’re ok Bella!

Maurice is an amazing book, one of the few gay Victorian classics out there. Love it and I think you’ll love it as well

I'm in a slump every summer, because I despise summer and don't want to do anything, but I am currently reading like 6 books of different genres and formats to combat this😂

U looked absolutely gorgeous in the last clip u were mothering 😋😭😋

I recently binge read the Villains are destined to die and ofmgggg its so addicting especially if your an otome game girlieeeee! idk if youve read it yet but do try if you havent! like i literally chose this book over sleep and caught up to the whole thing in 3 days!

I’m just at the beginning of the video so I don’t know if you got out of your reading slump during the week, but just jumping on here while I remember to recommend ‘Secrets of the Silent Witch’ Japanese light novel series. Really fun cast of characters, heartwarming, good pace, kind of a found family trope, talking cat - always puts me in a good mood!

to anyone who might be new here, bella does not lie when she says "welcome to your new place on the internet" 🙌🏻

I have had a pretty good reading month so far, because I've been re-reading the Harry Potter Series!! I almost got into a reading slump in May because I was forcing myself to get through a book and it was... not good, so I just dnfed it and moved on to reading books that I wanted to read. I recommend re-reads, I re-read a good girl's guide to murder because of the show that's going to release soon! And I'm also re-reading Harry Potter right now, of course. But I hope your manga gets you out of your slump!!

Seeing your joy over the play button was so wholesome, you deserve it ❤❤

I’m sending you love❤❤❤

bella do u think a vacation and some change of scenery could help with your reading slump?

You deserve this 100k card and much more ♥ i hope you have a great week and that your reading block passes. I love you ♥

CONGRATULATIONS FOR 100k YOU DESERVE IT!!!

I feel like I'm in a permanent slump atp. I do force myself to read and it pays off, but I can't help and let my mind wander elsewhere every 10 minutes. Usually it ends with me scrolling on tiktok getting major* mha spoilers and being graced with the aoba johsai chant. (It's stuck in my head help me..) Might be undiagnosed adhd, idk anymore 😭

You put so much care into sending books that you unhaul, which is so beautiful to see. 💜

I always find it helpful to reread a past favorite when I’m in a slump!

I feel like with this reading slump you need to enter into your cowboy romance era 🤠💗I know everyone is going to tell you to read the Chestnut Springs series first but personally I was in a reading slump when I read Off to the Races and I think that's the one to start with! I binged like 200 pages in two days when I hadn't read or finished anything in weeks. Note: do not sue me if you don't like it. I know we have different reading tastes but I think this book could help!
